Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total teaspoons of sugar

Since one cake needs 8 teaspoons of sugar and 3 cakes are to be made, the total teaspoons of sugar is $8\times3 = 24$ teaspoons.

Step2: Convert teaspoons to tablespoons

We know that 3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon. So, to convert 24 teaspoons to tablespoons, we divide 24 by 3: $24\div3=8$ tablespoons.

For question 15, meat and poultry are cut into small or thin pieces for even - cooking during sautéing, so it's true.
For question 16, TCS stands for Time and temperature control for safety.
For question 17, the three elements for a fire are fuel, oxygen, and heat.
For question 18, vegetables as garnish in a stew are usually added towards the end of cooking to retain color and texture, so it's false.

Answer:

C. 8 tbsp
